The Village. M Night still had some credibility going for him after Signs and the trailers actually looked quite good. My cousin and I had both just turned 12 and this was back before Spiderman introduced the 12A rating so we were feeling pretty psyched about getting to see a 'grown-up' movie at...

A cover version should offer a new take on the song, change the style, pace or tone to get something new out of the material. If it doesn't do that, the cover is bland, boring and ultimately sub-par to the original. That said, I don't have a problem with cover versions existing because at the...

CSI and its various spin offs. I know I'm not alone on this one, but the sheer number of people who like it vastly outnumbers the few who agree with me that it's awful. I think the last straw was when they showed us an episode during science class because the teacher didn't have a lesson...

"Your Mom" as an insult on its own is something that grates on me. The point of a "Your Mom" joke is to slip it into a conversation or argument on the back of the last statement made by the person you're directing it at to imply a stated quality is shared or expressed particularly noticeably by...

My Dad was really into PC gaming when I was a kid, he even used to program his own games using Pascal, so I remember that he and his friend Chris used to play games a lot and my older brother would sit there enthralled by it all and ended up becoming better at Transport Tycoon than either of...

Ninety-Nine Nights. The trailer playing on a loop in the game shop fooled me into thinking I was getting a good game, went home and played enough to learn that it was just a Dynasty Warriors clone and immediately regretted the ten bucks I spent on it. I've tried playing it again a few times...

I'm fully homosexual so I have to look at this from the opposite perspective and I can say that I am not in the slightest heterosexual; women just do not interest me in a sexual sense. I'm a 6 on the Kinsey scale and because I know that of myself I truly believe there are entirely heterosexual...

Pokemon/DBZ/Cardcaptors Watched them all in the horribly dubbed English versions as a kid and I couldn't honestly say which was first. The first anime I watched in the original Japanese with subtitles was Card Captor Sakura and the difference between it and the crap I remembered from my...

Glad I could provide some amusement. Also, I remembered a drinking game my friend told me about. His stepdad was watching the original Italian Job and they each had an item to trigger their drinking when it appeared on screen. Someone had mini, someone had lamppost and one guy had Michael...

My hometown has a Roald Dahl museum because he was born nearby or something. He also mentions our town in Matilda: "During the first week of Matilda's visits Mrs Phelps had said to her, 'Does your mother walk you down here every day and then take you home?' 'My mother goes to Aylesbury every...

A friend and I watched the Twilight movie with the rule that we had to take a shot every time Bella stared at Edward or vice versa. My friend asked to stop after the scene in biology class because her vision was blurring.

I won't grind a game on a first playthrough, that ruins the fun for me. But once I've beaten a game I like to go back and grind, try to unlock stuff I didn't get the first time etc. My worst ever grind was on FFVII. I had Climhazzard before I left Midgar and was level 60 with a ton of Master...

I tend to think of and plan for these hypothetical scenarios a lot so I have a system of passcodes in place for my future self to use when approaching me so that I'll know he's legit. If he got that right I guess I'd trust him enough to not take the money, after all there's more to life than money.

Oscar Wilde, the guy has such epic quotes and a great attitude to life.
